<description summary="Protocol for exporting xdg surface handles">
|
||
|
This protocol specifies a way for making it possible to reference a surface
|
||
|
of a different client. With such a reference, a client can, by using the
|
||
|
interfaces provided by this protocol, manipulate the relationship between
|
||
|
its own surfaces and the surface of some other client. For example, stack
|
||
|
some of its own surface above the other clients surface.
|
||
|
|
||
|
In order for a client A to get a reference of a surface of client B, client
|
||
|
B must first export its surface using xdg_exporter.export. Upon doing this,
|
||
|
client B will receive a handle (a unique string) that it may share with
|
||
|
client A in some way (for example D-Bus). After client A has received the
|
||
|
handle from client B, it may use xdg_importer.import to create a reference
|
||
|
to the surface client B just exported. See the corresponding requests for
|
||
|
details.
|
||
|
|
||
|
A possible use case for this is out-of-process dialogs. For example when a
|
||
|
sandboxed client without file system access needs the user to select a file
|
||
|
on the file system, given sandbox environment support, it can export its
|
||
|
surface, passing the exported surface handle to an unsandboxed process that
|
||
|
can show a file browser dialog and stack it above the sandboxed client's
|
||
|
surface.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Warning! The protocol described in this file is experimental and backward
|
||
|
incompatible changes may be made. Backward compatible changes may be added
|
||
|
together with the corresponding interface version bump. Backward
|
||
|
incompatible changes are done by bumping the version number in the protocol
|
||
|
and interface names and resetting the interface version. Once the protocol
|
||
|
is to be declared stable, the 'z' prefix and the version number in the
|
||
|
protocol and interface names are removed and the interface version number is
|
||
|
reset.
